Ergodic results for the stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with large damping

A semi-discrete scheme for the stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We study the convergence of a semi-discretized version of a numerical scheme for a stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The nonlinear term is a power law and the noise is multiplicative with a Stratonovich product. Our scheme is implicit in the deterministic part of the equation as is usual for conservative equations. We also use an implicit discretization of the noise which is better sui...

Stochastic Acceleration of Solitons for the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation

The effective dynamics of solitons for the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation in a random potential is rigorously studied. It is shown that when the external potential varies slowly in space compared to the size of the soliton, the dynamics of the center of the soliton is almost surely described by Hamilton’s equations for a classical particle in the random potential, plus error terms d...

Breathers for the Discrete Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with Nonlinear Hopping

We discuss the existence of breathers and lower bounds on their power, in nonlinear Schrödinger lattices with nonlinear hopping. Our methods extend from a simple variational approach to fixed-point arguments, deriving lower bounds for the power which can serve as a threshold for the existence of breather solutions. Qualitatively, the theoretical results justify non-existence of breathers below ...

Stroboscopic Averaging for the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation

In this paper, we are concerned with an averaging procedure, – namely Stroboscopic averaging [SVM07, CMSS10] –, for highly-oscillatory evolution equations posed in a (possibly infinite dimensional) Banach space, typically partial differential equations (PDEs) in a high-frequency regime where only one frequency is present. We construct a highorder averaged system whose solution remains exponenti...
